Refer to the State Geological Survey for information regarding groundwater supply, and possible location.
No the source is where the water came from before it got into the pipes. The tap is the last distribution point.

Irrigation
You would normally find the source of a river at high ground. Say your on a deserted island, you would look for the highest point to find freshwater which is normally near the source of the river. This is because of gravity, the water would be searching for the lowest point.
Oceans are not the source of fresh water on Earth. Drinking water primarily comes from 4 sources. Lakes, rivers, groundwater, and glaciers. (Of course, all of it is purified before it reaches you.) ADDED: The oceans are fundamentally the source, because the water falling as rain and snow has been evaporated from the sea, and the evaporation leaves the salt behind.

Sources that have water, mainly piped water from a single point.
From the point of the water source

The non-point source is potentially more harmful than the point source because it disrupts the water cycle.
There are several ways to estimate where water might easily be found before digging. Some believe in diviners, people who use switches or other devices to locate water. There is no scientific proof behind this method. The lay of the land may also yield clues. Low lying areas where water tends to accumulate after wet weather and areas that have consistently green vegetation may be good choices. Geological companies now use vertical electrical sounding to read the differences in the ground below. Computers take a number of readings and determine the most likely place to find water.
Diking is building up a wall to block water. Ditching is digging out land to form a path to lead water to/away from a source.

Non Point Water Pollution is where the pollutant does not enter from the source, rather anywhere else along the river. =P
Irrigation is providing water to crops when it is needed. In large fields and some gardens this is done through a system that sprays water on the field. it can also be done by digging trenches from a water source.
Possibly dig it a little deeper, the water table may have dropped. I would do that before I tried digging a new one.
